  • Vidal Sassoon: New Look!

    So, I did it! I went to the salon last night and had a pretty good experience. It’s much more posh than I thought it would be. There’s a coat check and assistants to get you drinks and stuff… My stylist was good, turns out she teaches at the school at the salon which made…

  • Having my ears lowered

    That’s right, folks. I’m giving the old chop chop to my goldie-locks tomorrow! Much like the wonderful and soon-to-be President Obama says, it’s time for change. I’m starting fresh with a new haircut. Now here’s the funny thing: I’ve decided to go to the Vidal Sassoon salon here in Toronto, and while I was googling…

  • Product Review: Rockport Boots & Customer Service

    I just had some awesome service, for some awesome boots. I love Rockport for their comfort and quality, I just wish they had more fashionable shoes to choose from! Oh well, they’re better than they used to be! Here’s the letter I sent to customer service about my experience today: To Whom It May Concern:…

  • Product Review: SkullCandy Ink’d: Smokin’ Buds

    I just picked myself up a pair of these babies today at The Source for $24.99 + tax and I am impressed! I’ve seen lots of people around Toronto with various SkullCandy products, and they always struck me as a pretty cool brand. I mean, with a name like SkullCandy they have to be pretty…

  • I love vinyl wall stickers. Oh yes.

    I just can’t help myself, I’m in love with the wall stickers over at Loomis/DeSerres. There’s a shop right near my office and I walked by the other day and caught my eye on their window display. I went in and picked up a booklet on all the designs available and now have sticker lust…

  • Mmmmarvellous Melona!

    Totally found a new treat today, folks! I was out for a stroll at lunch with a friend and she introduced me to the heavenly bliss that is the Melona Ice Bar. *drools* It’s a Korean treat that can only be found at a few places in T.O. What a shame! I found it at…

  • The Vespa Investigation

    A while back I blogged about possibly getting myself a scooter to get around the GTA in the pleasant months. I was hoping to get one pretty soon, especially since the TTC strike put a real kink in my plans. However, after a little investigation into costs and logistics, I’ve decided to put off my…

  • Product Review: Cake Milk Made Hand Creme

    I’m on a roll, folks! Here’s a review of one of the other products I was pleasantly surprised by: Milk Made Hand Creme by Cake. I first received this as a gift from the W Network about a year ago. I had no idea what it was and had never heard of the brand before…

  • Product Review: Avon Supershock Mascara

    I mentioned ages ago that I would start doing unpaid reviews on products or services that I thought needed to be reviewed… so here is the first! I am totally in love with this new mascara by Avon. Supershock Mascara ($9.99) is their newest mascara and comes in your basic colours (navy, brown, black &…

  • Schtickers Love!

    Ok, I was browsing The Windowshoppist not long ago, and she had a post featuring a seriously cool laptop sticker from Schtickers.com. I can’t believe I did this, but I actually bought one ($24 after shipping & conversion), and I applied it today! I totally fell in love with the fine art schticker of Flaming…
